Coat the Walnuts:
Toss the walnuts with the maple syrup and seasonings.

The maple coating sets as these walnuts cool, turning each piece lightly crisp and candied. Cinnamon lends just enough warmth to make them hard to leave alone.
I usually tell myself I'm making these for salads, but they rarely make it that far. Walking past the cooling rack and grabbing "just one more" somehow turns into a handful every single time. The maple syrup creates a light candy coating without making them overly sweet, and the cinnamon gives them just enough warmth to make the whole kitchen smell incredible while they're baking.

Toss the walnuts with the maple syrup and seasonings.

Arrange the walnuts in a single layer.

Bake slowly, stirring every 10 minutes.
Allow the coating to harden before serving.
